In honor of the holiday and the start of summer, the Finger Lakes Regional Tourism Council, the official 14-county tourism promotion agency as designated by I Love NY, is supporting the recognition by releasing a list of its top ice cream stops, producers, and sweet spots across the region - as well as the region's own contribution to the world of ice cream over the years.

Seneca Falls, N.Y. - It's all about youth during NationalPark Week at Women's Rights National Historical Park from April 19th through 27th.
